Revenge After Death

Chapter 175

I was aware that he might go berserk and harm himself after being triggered. After all, that was his way of punishing himself.

Steven was reluctant to answer Quentin’s questions and simply kept banging his head against the wall, perhaps trying to calm himself down.

“You liked Stephanie, but she didn’t belong to you. She was in love with Michael, so you had no choice but to kill her. Only then would she be yours forever.
